Donald Trump’s education secretary on Thursday said her successor’s policies are ‘as far left as they come’, and accused the Biden administration of promoting divisive and dangerous ideas.
Betsy DeVos spoke after the White House was forced to admit it had made an ‘error’ by promoting a group that pushes teachers to ‘disrupt Whiteness and oppression’.
Department of Education guidance on reopening schools had linked to the Abolitionist Teaching Network’s ‘Guide for Racial Justice & Abolitionist Social and Emotional Learning’ in a section describing how schools are a ‘microcosm of society’ and conversations essential to ‘race and emotional learning’ should be ‘anchor tenets’ in schools.
DeVos said she was convinced it was not an error, and was rather a deliberate attempt to politicize the Department of Education.
‘This notion that it was a mistake is an absolute falsehood,’ she said.
‘Having been there at the department for four years and working through the approval processes for anything that is put out from the department, I know full well that there were eyes on and full knowledge of this going on.
We saw earlier this year, the grant process the department put out that basically was trying to bribe schools into using the 1619 Project in their materials,’ she added.
‘So this is just another reflection of the true nature of the Biden Department of Education. It’s just preposterous.’
She added: ‘This Department of Education under the Biden administration is about as far left as you can imagine.’
She said parents should ‘continue to raise their voices’ and not give in to the officials from teaching unions.
‘This ideology is insidious everywhere, and there is a lot of momentum behind it.’
Earlier on Thursday Jen Psaki, the White House press secretary, appeared to distance Biden from the group that produced the booklet even further.
‘The specific site does not endorse – does not represent – the administration’s view, and we don’t endorse the recommendations of this group,’ Psaki said, adding that the controversial mention has ‘been removed or in the process of being removed.’
Psaki said the federal government does not ‘dictate or recommend specific curriculum decisions’ in schools, a decision she maintained was up to state and local governments.
‘We believe the American people trust teachers to make those decisions, not the government,’ the press secretary said.
So there’s a big problem with this. Has Biden & Harris forced elite tax break US schools to teach this thing so say called communism?
No, the crap they teach sheeple is just crap. They’re not teaching so say left wing crap to make sheeple lives better, so this entire story is a load of bollox.
I’m 60 and when I was at school the teachers were sort of left leaning, but only on the Dennis Healey level. Healey was a champagne elitist snob & was no more left wing than Margaret Thatcher.
Biden has never given a shit about ordinary sheeple. This fake news rubbish that his regime is left wing just doesn’t stand up.
White Elephant understood about the problem of women in education before I did. They have a resentment based on feeling inferior, then they think their inferior position is unfair, and then they project this over to Blacks, so you will automatically get women giving the country away to foreign and hostile people. On the BBC all you will hear is this female resentment and a gleeful sabotage of the country.
Slowly but surely, the scenario predicted by the Fatima prophecy of 1917 is unfolding before our very eyes. I myself never imagined that the “errors of Russia” would spread to the United States under the guise of “political correctness”, but it’s happened. The neo-Bolsheviks have even succeeded in hijacking the American presidency!
Only this prayer will bring lasting peace:
“Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Father, send now Your Spirit over the earth.
Let the Holy Spirit live in the hearts of all nations, that they may be preserved from degeneration, disaster and war.
May the Lady of All Nations, who once was Mary, be our Advocate.
Amen.”
FYI: exactly ten years before communism came to an end in Eastern Europe in 1989, Pope John-Paul II made the following invocation during an outdoor Mass in Warsaw (June 2nd 1979):
“And I cry — I who am a Son of the land of Poland and who am also Pope John Paul II — I cry from all the depths of this Millennium, I cry on the vigil of Pentecost:
Let your Spirit descend.
Let your Spirit descend,
and renew the face of the earth,
the face of this land.
Amen.”
Remember, they (blacks, jews, women, homos, browns, asians etc) won’t be happy until every gentile white male is dead. That’s what you’re up against. They won’t stop until the white man is supreme (Nazism) or he’s liquidated (Communism)…
So this union of deranged idiots espouses to “disrupt Whiteness and other forms of oppression” do they? Apparently they are so deranged as to not realize “whiteness” is what built western civilization and everything great in it. It wasn’t niggers, savages, and mongrels who raised the standard of living for billions of people, it was that dreaded “whiteness”. Were mistakes made? Absolutely. But everyone is still FAR better off due to “whiteness” than the contrary.
Shoot, a white guy even invented basketball, an idiotic sport through which countless blacks, who were otherwise talentless or intellectually inferior to be of any use, have been made fabulously wealthy.
Someone please educate me on all the brilliant contributions to civilization and society made by blacks, hispanics, and mongrels. It would be a laughably short list. Approximately 10% of blacks are worth more than a cup of warm pig piss, that’s it.
Even the Biden administration, which is chock full of deranged scumbags and lunatic leftists, is reportedly distancing itself from some of those dangerous “teaching” ideologies. The silent majority continues to remain silent at its own peril and demise. “Whiteness” should be celebrated and aspired to rather than dragged through the gutter. The white majority had better find its voice while it still can.
Deranged depraved leftist, Marxist, mongrel ideology is begging to meet an abrupt and violent end. Dangerous subversives in the Abolitionist Teaching Network, as well as proponents of the 1619 Project and the divisive insanity of critical race theory should not be tolerated for one moment longer. Rather, they should be dragged through the streets by their ankles, publicly horse-whipped, and removed to a prison island where they should be forced to fend for themselves. Oh, the magnificent civilization they will surely build there without the curse of whiteness to hinder their greatness….
A civil war is already in progress, and the savages, mongrels, and deranged leftists are in for a very rude and painful awakening when the white majority decides to start shooting back.
Rothschild brings in a Tommy Robinson so that we do not get a Mark Collett. He brings in a Hitler so that we do not have the effective Jew- resistance that we had before, ever since Duhring. And rather than blame the British for defeating Hitler, why will Nico X never blame Hitler for not fighting hard enough? It is only the other side of the coin, yet he never looks.
@lewis jones…I guess you forgot that it was your nation (Britain) that started the war with Germany…Hitler essentially just wanted to be left alone & raise Aryan-Germanic civilization to new levels. But the scum wouldn’t leave him alone. Even the USSR first violated the Nazi-Soviet pact by invading Bukovina in 1940, which was an illegal intrusion into Axis territory. So what we have here, is both Britain/USSR starting the conflicts, not Hitler/Germany, even though the history books claim otherwise..Do the research.
The Nazi goal was to obliterate the USSR & liberate the Russian/Ukrainian white gentiles from Communism & expand the Reich eastward. This would have been achieved, except the Nazis didn’t take into account the immense material aid (tanks, trucks, planes, guns, etc) the Soviet scum were receiving from the UK/USA. This oversight cost them. But the blame must be put on the whites of the UK/USA/Canada/Australia/USSR etc who started the war & caused the fall of the Third Reich…Figure it out, if you can…
